Producers and consumer interact with anothers to form food chains.
Key Point #1: The SUN ______ is the source of all energy.

Key Point #3: 1. Primary consumer: Eats producers 2. Secondary consumer: Eats primary consumers 3. Tertiary consumer: Eats secondary consumers
ENERGY SOURCE PRODUCERS Primary Consumer Herbivore Secondary Consumer Omnivore Tertiary Consumer Carnivore

But what happens if the food web gets interrupted? Suppose the wolves eat ALL of the chickens and there are no chickens left? What do you think would happen?
Food Web Interactions What do you think will happen to the rabbits, if all the vegetation is destroyed? Key Point #7: Loss of food sources= extinction
Food Web Interactions What do you think will happen to the cougar, if all of the deer die? Key Point #8: Loss of SOME of food sources= decrease in size

What will happen to the mouse population, if a disease kills all the plants? A. All will go extinct B. Increase in size C. Decrease in size D. Reproduce more A
Imagine that a bobcat enters the ecosystem. Bobcats eat insectivorous birds. What will happen to the fox population? A. All will go extinct B. Increase in size C. Decrease in size D. Move elsewhere C
Imagine that a disease kills all of the snakes in the ecosystem. What will happen to predaceous insect population? A. All will go extinct B. Increase in size C. Decrease in size D. Stop eating herbivorous insects B
Does the food web end with the eagle? Eventually, nutrients need to be returned back to the soil. Key Point #10: Decomposers Examples? Bacteria and fungi Break down corpses, waste, and vegetation
